I would think that some teams will view him as a Desean Jackson type, someone who can threaten a defense deep and with the ball in his hands as a returner. If a team knew they would get a Jackson like career they would be all in at that 10-15 range in the 1st round. Kind of where I think he will go.

Smith is 3 inches taller, 5 lb lighter and 1 year older than Desean was at his combine, too. He's draftable, but no way am I taking a 6'+ 166 lb 22 year old WR in the first round...

Rainmaker90 Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 I bet he's picked over 11.5. I cant see it either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackson was 169 pounds at the combine and 5'9.3/4", I look at 6' being a positive in that he may add a little more weight as he matures. Whoever drafts him certainly needs a plan to maximize his skillset. I'm not crazy about little WR's either and would think long and hard before deciding on whether to draft one or not, but you and I are not making those decisions either.

I get it - theoretically if you’re 180+ lbs you’re more durable? Stronger? Able to beat press better? But given what Smith can do and how he succeeds it’s hard to imagine those 20 lbs adding much to his game. I get it - don’t bet on an outlier. But take players like Marvin Harrison and Isaac Bruce, theyre essentially his size and played in a more physical era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NFLGURU Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 (edited) Depends on the teams approach. Does he fit in GB, probably not. He'll fit in KC or AZ though. Too much talent to dismiss him, agree on the mid-first range. A lot depends on how you use him. Edited April 26, 2021 by NFLGURU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannondale Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Does the trend continue that the pick at #29 is someone the Packers haven't had a visit with (virtual would be the new "visit") or has covid sent that idea off the rails ?? There was a great thread a couple years ago listing all the guys drafted in the later rounds were from visits, but Round 1 stayed a secret Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dudes no Lazard but he’s not worthless. TBH, it makes me question Stokes. He is 25 lbs heavier than Smith, he should manhandle him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Cam Jordan should’ve manhandled Lazard last year but didn’t despite having 60 lbs on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
